In Brazil this week, a businesswoman was taken into custody on suspicion of channeling R$28 million through the underground economy of jogo do tigrinho — a digital betting game that has flourished in the shadows of an unregulated market. Her arrest is less a singular event than a symptom of a deeper tension: between a society's appetite for chance and the state's belated effort to impose order on it. Where law has been slow to follow human behavior, enforcement now arrives in its place, though the question of whether prohibition or regulation will ultimately prevail remains open.
